The folks below are having some trouble with their electric Spirit rear hatch, this is the same problem I had with my 80 Spirit GT months ago, shown here with my dog Max who passed away recently sitting it it. I never did figure out this problem with the hatch however. I even replaced the little glovebox switch with a NOS unit. So if anyone has some tips or advise let's hear it and thanks in advance to all who may reply.
